Are Bert and Ernie gay? Official 'Sesame Street' Twitter account sparks rumors with ambiguous post

Are Bert and Ernie gay? Official 'Sesame Street' Twitter account sparks rumors with ambiguous post: "It was the tweet heard round 'Sesame Street.'
'Ever notice how similar my hair is to Mr. T's?' lovable sweater-clad Bert wrote on the official 'Sesame Street' Twitter account in June. 'The only difference is mine is a little more 'mo,' a little less 'hawk.''
Taking the 'mo' to mean 'homosexual,' the tweet had gay bloggers, activists, and parents buzzing that the show was letting them in on a big secret with an under-the-radar wink.
The Los Angeles Times took the post as the latest evidence in a history of clues the show has dropped over the years that Bert and Ernie are more than just friends, reviving the (nearly) age-old question: are Bert and Ernie gay?"
